Dear music lover,

thank you for purchasing a Pro-Ject Audio Systems Record Box E.

In order to achieve maximum performance and reliability you should study these instructions for use carefully.

Warning of a hazard for the user, the unit or possible misuse.

Important notice.

Safety instructions

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Before connecting to the mains, make sure that the

voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the power supply.

The power supply is used to disconnect the unit from the mains. Make sure that the power supply is easily

accessible at all times. Never handle the device, the power supply while your hands are wet or damp.

Avoid letting liquids enter the device or the power supply. Never place any item containing liquid,

such as a flower vase on or near the device. Never spill any liquid on the device or the power supply.

Never place any naked flame sources, such as lighted candles on or near the device. The product shall not

be used in damp or wet locations, next to a bathtub, sink, swimming pool or any other similar conditions.

Setting the cartridge mode

The phono amplifier can be used in either MM (for moving magnet and high-output MC cartridges) or MC (for

low-output MC cartridges) mode according to the construction principle of the pickup cartridge to be used.

Since most cartridges use the MM principle the phono amplifier is factory set to operate in this mode. To find

out which type your cartridge is please consult the literature accompanying your cartridge. If in doubt please

consult your dealer.

A switch at the back sets the correct level of amplification for the cartridge.

Before setting MM / MC mode the unit must be disconnected from the power supply and amplifier.

Connectors

Make all connections whilst the phono amplifier is disconnected from the power supply.

Take care to connect the left and right channels correctly. The right channel is usually marked red, the

left channel black or white.

Do not connect the phono amplifiers output to a phono input (sometimes labelled gram, disc or RIAA)

on the amplifier.

Never use any other power supply than the one supplied with the unit.

Connecting the record player

Connect the tonearm signal lead to the In of the phono amplifier. The earthing wire may be connected to the

screw terminal if you encounter hum problems when using the record player.

Connection to the amplifier

Connect the Out of the phono amplifier to a line input (such as AUX, CD, Tuner, Tape or Video) on your

amplifier.

Mains power connection

Connect the low voltage plug from the power supply to the Power 18V DC socket of the phono amplifier

before connecting the power supply to the mains.

Connecting to a Computer

Connect the USB-output of the unit to a free USB-socket on your computer and turn it on/make sure it is

powered on.

The “new hardware found assistant“will automatically detect the unit and announces it as a Microphone USB

audio codec. There is no need to install a driver manually.

After installation, one setting has to be done. For example - Windows 7®operating system:

Control Panel Sound Recording Microphone USB Audio CODEC Properties 

Advanced: Set to 2 channels, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)

Please note: Connection should be made to an USB-socket of your computer directly. Connecting to

USB-hubs or switches can cause problems.

Recording Programme

In case you do not have a recording programme installed on your computer, you may download one free from

the Internet. Recording programmes may be found by searching Google or Yahoo.

In the menu of the recording programme, source or input may have to be set to Microphone USB audio codec.
